The final job on the Cargowaggon twin set was to add the transfers, these came from Railtec and are to their usual high standard (although there were some issues).
I can’t tell if you are supposed to buy 2 packs to do one twin or if mine was missing a sheet, br there are not enough of some parts to do the pair (it is short by 4 of each door warning message, plus the OHLE flashes for the ends only had the left hand flash not the right hand)

 

My soloution was to model 2 different wagons, one side with the early text warning and the other with the newer picture warning that was added in 1998. A different number was used on each side, and while I couldn’t find prototype images for the specific numbers included I based the two sides on a mix of prototype images

 

It needs to be fitted with screw couplings, small details (hand break wheel, ferry lashing eyes etc) and will eventually need some very heavy weathering
